my $0.02,
i think that it would be EXTREMELY nice if netatalk functioned,
at least from a sysadmin/user config perspective, more like samba.
i'm not sure how this would work from a developer's perspective
given that i'm not much of a programmer meself (a little bash ;)
maybe netatalk-asun3.0 or something.
i'd esp. like to see:
1) atalkpasswd == smbpasswd
working at a school, we basically have guest/student and staff
logins. i'd like to eliminate having a home dir for student and
just have 1 file, atalkpasswd, to deal with like in samba.
thanks for listening,
-stephen
